Just thought I'd post some piccies of our foals as I haven't for ages!! .........Also for those who are interested a couple of the 'controvertial' stallion I bought!!

This is Foxfolly Imagine (Ginny) Icons Image / Dynasty / Dompfaff, she moves beautifully, very floaty and light on her feet, she will hopefully be event / SJ type.

This is Foxfolly Independance (Dexter) Icon's Image out of our Cob Mare Fabreeeze VII who is unknown breeding. He is a lot lighter moving than his half brother (Below) very correct and straight moving will hopefully be a nice RC horse / Hunter type or possibly eventer depending on how heavy he matures out at!

This is Breeze's 4yo son Fox Folly First Edition (Ed) who is by Rebellious(D) who is believed to be mainly Hanovarian breeding. He is a sweety and will make a great hunter or RC horse. Not flashy but very workmanlike and very honest over the few jumps he has been over!

Dexter's nick name is Phirana!!! He is into everything with his teeth!!! The long stick is for injecting cattle...he was all over Martin wanting to know what he had Ginny was rather nervous of it!!!
 
All look lovely and the Darco boy looks extremely chilled out! How has he settled in? Has he been good to handle? I'd love to hear how you get on with him, he has a nice honest face

He's settled in really well, all bar 1 incident where I thought I had broken him big time... to cut a long story short he got away from me in the field when I was bringing him in (Totally my fault not his!!) then got spooked by the rope round his legs and jumped a 4' hedge and landed a good 7' down in a ditch the other side! He was really lucky, was stuck in there for 10 mins and got away with a few minor cuts. I am now a lot more careful with how I bring him in!!

Should also add, he is a sweetie to handle, we lead him in a pirelli (Sp?) head collar which he is really good in. He's actually really easy to do in and out of the stable just a bit keen and excitable when he sees any new horses but he's calming down with that too now!!
 
Stallion is looking better already

LMAO!!! Believe it or not he isn't on any hard feed at all, just grass.. he isn't in hard work so he doesn't really need anything more with an arse on him like that!!
He's probably over 17hh now and only just 4!! Breeze does throw big, she is 16.2 and Ed's full brother who is a year older was I think over 17hh I'm pretty sure the stallion was 16hh-16.1!!
